| Columbia, Newberry and Laurens road will
start from Prosperity, not from Columbia.

Successful Enterprise.

Every man or woman who purchased stock
in the companies who are selling the Wolf
skill, Porter, Providencia, and other large
ranchos, will acknowledge that they never
made better or safer investments. The de-
mand for good land is so great that all large
ranches that are bought at any reasonable
price, will certainly bring to the purchasers
an immense return on their investmest. The
same enterprising gentlemen who are so sue
cessfully managing the ranches above men
toned, have been fortunate enough to secure
IL 900 acres of the best land in the famous
Lankershim Ranch in the San Fernando Val
ley, only eight miles from Los Angeles. This
land adjoins the Providencia, where land OF
the same quality is selling at 5000 and 5000
per acre.
The syndicate who purchased this fine
property, are about to form company to
own, and subdivide, and sell this 10000
acres. The first purchasers of stock will get
the land at $65 per acre by subscribing foI
the stock at 800 per share ON very easy
terms.
The sale of stock will begin Tuesday, Au
gust 2ne, at the offices of BYRAM & POIN
DEXTER, 81 West First Street, and BURCH

Chronic Bronchitis.

Chronic Bronchitis is also an infiamma
ton of the mucous mem brane OF the bron-
chial tnbes When cold settles on the
lungs the disease either ends in bronchitis
or pneumonia. II Il ends In bronchitis Il
usually passes off as u cold ON the chest
aud still the patient does feel entirely
well. DE feels tired and l8uguid, aud is In,
capable of taking his usual amount OF exer.
ci.c. and experiences a sbortness of breath
with more or less warmth In the palms OF
his hands. Soon after this cough appears.
accompanied by an expe etoration OF thick
mucus, followed by a ht cite flush, loss OF
flesh aud strength and night sweats con-
tipue, when the patient assumes all the ap-
sumption. But this is simply catarrh of the
lungs or chronic Bronchitis.
Ia the later stage OF the disease the mucus
membrane of the larger bronchial tube
s0ftens, while in the smaller tubes and air
cells OF the luugs the mucus membrane be.
comes congested and inhammtd There
are no cayaties nor tubercies in the lungs,
but merely wasting away of the larger
bronchial tubes. and death takes place
from obstruction OF the bronchial tubes and
air cells of the lungs. The patient dies
from exhaustion and sutfocation, being
unable to expectorate the mucus which
accumulates in the passago leading to the
lungs, which In some cases Is sticky aud
small in quantity, but more commonly
copious, of Il light straw or ye'lowish green
pearance in the mucus. ard at times there
is disagreeable smell. Persons thus af.
hicted are very liable to take a cold, At
which time The mucus becomes clear and
frothy. and 1t is not uncommonly the case
that the patient dies In one OF these attacks
